Sat 130310: Push Jerks - 5 rep

Barry and Karl worked on their push jerk today.

The main learning points were;

1) Stretch your Hamstring muscle groups! Both bent and straight leg variations....

2) Think about the feeling of 'Jumping the bar up through your chest, in a tight stable rack'
You do use your arms, but, the HIPS are the main driving force for the movement.

Karl and Barry practised technique over 5 reps with 50 and 55kg respectively.

Take a quick look below at Press, PP & PJ - notice the good rack position and the HIP drive.
